Singer/Songwriter AJ Rafael has 18,942 followers on Twitter, 97,921 subscribers on YouTube, and 16,872 fans on Facebook. Needless to say, AJ Rafael is a big deal.

Mobo Media and Cantina Lounge are hosting the long overdue North OC Tweetup this Saturday, June 13th from 3pm – 6pm at Cantina Lounge in Fullerton. A tweetup is a great way to meet tweeple that you interact with via Twitter IRL (in real life), meet new tweeps that you wouldn’t have been able to meet otherwise, and build new communities! If you’ve never been to a tweetup before, it probably sounds really strange, and maybe a little intimidating…but I guarantee that you will have a great time! I’ve never …
